| === gandalf is now known as Guest84966 | ||
| lakis1982 | jucato? | 01:26 |
| Jucato | lakis1982: I mean that Compiz-Fusion, the "Desktop Effects", is incompatible with KDE virtual desktops. that's why nothing happens when you try to add a desktop the normal KDE way when Desktop Effects are enabled | 01:26 |
| Jucato | I think Compiz uses a different way to add a virtual desktop (which they call viewports) | 01:26 |

| ttuuxxx | Hi I'm building KDE on a none kde distro, And well its working well But I'm Having a couple of small issues the first 2 are.Any Ideas how to fix "CData" and "Could not find mime type application/octet-stream" and this is what it looks like http://img341.imageshack.us/img341/9425/bibletimecdatanl4.png | 01:57 |
| ttuuxxx | On ya I'm using Ubuntu intrepid packages to get kde working | 01:59 |
| NickPresta | ttuuxxx, that CDATA bit is from an XML or XHTML document. It is used to wrap CSS/JavaScript. | 01:59 |
| NickPresta | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CDATA | 02:00 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | ttuuxxx: you're using intrepid packages to build kde on a distro that isn't ubuntu? | 02:00 |
| ttuuxxx | yes Daisuke and its working excellent, the kde base is 40mb compressed and things like k3b i have working perfectly and its a 7mb compressed, bibletime is 8mb compressed etc, they both work really well. | 02:03 |
| ttuuxxx | Its taken me around 2weeks to get the bugs/build out | 02:04 |
| ttuuxxx | around 90+hrs | 02:04 |
| NickPresta | ttuuxxx, you could have installed any other generic distro, installed their KDE packages (or builds) and saved yourself some time | 02:05 |
| ttuuxxx | I have kde running on puppy linux wich is gtk2 + Qt4 strictly, Basically I could have a the default puppy applications , plus k3b and bible time on a 150MB cd, which I can run live or install | 02:05 |

I have read on the forums that this is a widespread problem that started ocuring recently but haven't been able to find an answer. I get "Permissions denied" when I try and automount | 02:32 |
| pucko- | so, realplayer installer just wants to write to /opt | 02:32 |
| pucko- | if you install it as root (or sudo) you don't need to change anything | 02:33 |
| NegroAgy | then i push F | 02:33 |
| NegroAgy | ok? | 02:33 |
| pucko- | but as user, you should set a group or something. | 02:33 |

| ivan_ | Jucato, yes, and please dont send me to kubuntu-kde4 no one answers there | 02:45 |

| ubottu | ivan_: It's the middle of the night in the US and Europe, and surrounds.

Please be patient, and consider asking at a time when more people will be awake. This is particularly true in the quieter channels. | 02:46 |

| Jucato | (kwrite has always been the *default* KDE text editor in KDE 3. Kubuntu changed it to kate) | 02:47 |

| ivan_ | oh this is a basic question, how do i start an application as super user?? | 02:48 |
| Jucato | if it's a graphical app, "kdesu <appname>" | 02:48 |
| Jucato | !kdesu | ivan_ | 02:48 |
| ubottu | ivan_: In KDE, use « kdesudo <program> » (Gutsy) or « kdesu <program> » (Feisty and earlier) to run graphical applications with root privileges when you have to. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 02:48 |

| solo | Keeping the cache means that if something needs the same data again, there's a good chance it will still be in the cache in memory. Fetching the information from there is around 1,000 times quicker than getting it from the hard disk. | 02:55 |
| solo | there is my answer and why Linux is so damn fast! :) I likie | 02:55 |
| darkdelusions | it has hella better memory managment? :) | 02:56 |
| pucko- | I've always found it slow | 02:56 |

| Jucato | jimmy51_home: it means that you had a kernel update | 03:05 |
| solo | go figure | 03:05 |
| jimmy51_home | i see | 03:06 |
| Jucato | that's about the only time you will need to reboot. but even then it's optional until you actually want to use the new kernel | 03:06 |
| jimmy51_home | jucato, how does that work? i mean, updating stuff that's currently running? i've updated apps right underneath themselves quite a bit. | 03:06 |
| solo | i just found a computer on the side of the road today that had a HP burner and 30gig HD in it... and it all works | 03:06 |
| solo | :D | 03:07 |
| solo | ... and 64md stick | 03:07 |
| Jucato | jimmy51_home: no problem with that usually. and in the case of a kernel upgrade, it actually doesn't upgrade an already running kernel. it installs a new copy of the latest kernel | 03:07 |
| Jucato | (so basically a "kernel upgrade" is actually installing a new, separate kernel) | 03:07 |
| jimmy51_home | does it retain the old, but just change the default grub entry? | 03:07 |
| Jucato | yep yep | 03:08 |
| jimmy51_home | how would... say, a firefox update work? | 03:08 |
| Jucato | it always retains the old kernels and adds the new one to grub | 03:08 |
| jimmy51_home | i've updated firefox through adept, while browsing with firefox | 03:08 |
| pucko- | jucato, not really | 03:08 |

| usamahashimi | Hello Everyone | 04:31 |
| flaccid | hi | 04:32 |
| usamahashimi | I have mistakenly delete the file /etc/apt/sources.list, from which website i can find the repos for ubuntu 8.04? | 04:32 |
| flaccid | usamahashimi: should just be able to re-enable them in adept manager in manage repositories | 04:33 |
| usamahashimi | flaccid: adept is adding only two repos and from my previous hardy experience i remember that there were 5 or 6 repos | 04:34 |
| flaccid | adept can add a lot more than 2 by default, which do you need | 04:34 |
| usamahashimi | flaccid: lemme try again and i will tell you the result | 04:35 |
| flaccid | ok | 04:35 |
| usamahashimi | flaccid: yes, thanks :) | 04:36 |
| flaccid | np | 04:36 |
| usamahashimi | flaccid: should i also add the "Unsupported Updates"? | 04:36 |
| flaccid | up to you, there usually isnt a need unless you find one | 04:37 |
| usamahashimi | flaccid: is there any harm in adding it? | 04:37 |
| flaccid | not usually, i enable it and then if i find a bug i look into it | 04:38 |
| usamahashimi | flaccid: ok, thanks a lot | 04:38 |

| codster | Hey i was wondering if anyone use's themes with Beryl and if so where do they get theme? | 05:03 |
| doorknob60 | beryl...you mean emerald? | 05:05 |
| codster | well | 05:05 |
| codster | im not sure | 05:05 |
| codster | i have emerald and Beryl | 05:05 |
| codster | im not sure how to get or apply themes? | 05:05 |
| doorknob60 | what kubuntu version you got? beryl is outdated, its called compiz fusion now | 05:05 |
| codster | ohh | 05:06 |
| codster | i have 7.04 | 05:06 |
| codster | :( | 05:06 |
| doorknob60 | id upgrade if i were you | 05:06 |
| codster | i know | 05:06 |
| doorknob60 | but you dont need to | 05:06 |
| codster | but im learning so there is no rush | 05:06 |
| doorknob60 | if your talking about emerald themes (the title bar themes), then theres should be an emerald theme manager somewhere | 05:07 |
| codster | Well Compiz Fusion do i get that in the repos in my Version of Kubuntu? | 05:07 |
| doorknob60 | i havent used beryl, just compiz so idk if your not talking about emerald themes | 05:07 |
| doorknob60 | i dont think compiz fusion is in 7.04 | 05:07 |
| flaccid | is that feisty? | 05:08 |
| doorknob60 | yeah | 05:08 |
| flaccid | !info compiz-fusion feisty | 05:08 |
| ubottu | 'feisty' is not a valid distribution | 05:08 |
| flaccid | !info compiz-fusion fiesty | 05:08 |
| ubottu | 'fiesty' is not a valid distribution | 05:08 |
| doorknob60 | in october, feisty is unsupported and the repositories for it will go bye bye, so id upgrade soon | 05:08 |
| codster | not sure i think it is, | 05:08 |
| codster | :( | 05:09 |
| codster | really | 05:09 |
| doorknob60 | yeah 7.04=feisty | 05:09 |
| codster | can i upgrade without a CD? | 05:09 |
| doorknob60 | yeah | 05:09 |
| codster | from using this present.. | 05:09 |
| doorknob60 | 1 sec ill get a guide | 05:09 |
| codster | okay | 05:09 |
| codster | thanks | 05:09 |
| EightiesK | lol i have a 5.04 cd... | 05:09 |
| codster | lol im a little far behind. i dont want KDE 4.0 thou' | 05:09 |
| codster | i have a6.06 :( | 05:09 |
| codster | LTS :D | 05:09 |
| flaccid | compiz is in feisty but not compiz-fusion it seems | 05:09 |
| codster | well is 8.04 come with KDE4.0 by default? | 05:09 |
| codster | or whichever the version is now. | 05:10 |
| doorknob60 | 8.04 default comes with 3.5.9 | 05:10 |
| doorknob60 | 4.0 is too buggy rigth now | 05:10 |
| codster | okay good | 05:11 |
| codster | thats what i like to hear lol, i heard its buggy too. | 05:11 |
| doorknob60 | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardyUpgrades/Kubuntu | 05:11 |
| codster | thanks :D | 05:11 |
| doorknob60 | thats for 7.10 to 8.04 but ti should apply from 7.04 to 7.10 also | 05:11 |
| codster | okay | 05:11 |
| doorknob60 | then wen your on 7.10 you can upgrade again to 8.04 | 05:11 |
| codster | lol wish me luck if not ill get a CD later | 05:11 |
| flaccid | well technically you can upgrade from whatever. i've done dapper to hardy a few times | 05:11 |
| doorknob60 | ok | 05:11 |
| codster | uhh lol | 05:11 |
| doorknob60 | well dapper is lts so they let you go to hardy | 05:12 |
| doorknob60 | on feisty and edgy you gotta go one at a tim | 05:12 |
| flaccid | kind of. they say here they don't support such an upgrade.. | 05:12 |
| codster | so this only says 7.10 to 8.04? | 05:12 |
| codster | the guide? | 05:12 |
| flaccid | doorknob60: you don't. i've done an upgrade to hardy from all of them straight up | 05:13 |
| doorknob60 | yeah, but it applys for 7.04 to 7.10 | 05:13 |
| codster | okay | 05:13 |
| flaccid | smoothness of upgrades always varies | 05:13 |
| codster | thanks i thought you ment "Upgrade from 7.04 to 7.10 then from 7.10 to 8.04" shesh i dont have that much time lol, | 05:13 |
| doorknob60 | thats the supported way | 05:13 |
| doorknob60 | i think 7.04 to 8.04 might require manual editing of sources.list | 05:14 |
| flaccid | in theory you may run into less problems doing it that way | 05:14 |
| codster | uhh | 05:14 |
| codster | great | 05:14 |
| codster | i think ill just order a CD | 05:14 |
| codster | lol | 05:14 |
| doorknob60 | no need | 05:14 |
| codster | will save me the hassle, i hate the editing list's and texts and things | 05:14 |
| codster | but i need to learn | 05:14 |
| doorknob60 | its easy | 05:14 |
| codster | well i dont want to upgrade if its going to cause problems | 05:14 |
| doorknob60 | press alt f2 and type this: kdesudo kate /etc/apt/sources.list | 05:15 |
| codster | ohh | 05:15 |
| doorknob60 | then change everywhere it says 'feisty' to 'hardy' | 05:15 |
| codster | thats it? | 05:15 |
| codster | 0.0 lol i thought it would be much harder | 05:15 |
| doorknob60 | then run sudo apt-get update | 05:15 |
| flaccid | then you gotta perform the upgrade :) | 05:15 |
| doorknob60 | then run sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 05:15 |
| codster | well i'll try the upgrade, if all else fails i dont mind reinstalling. | 05:15 |
| doorknob60 | that should do it | 05:15 |
| codster | shesh | 05:15 |
| codster | lol | 05:15 |
| codster | and i will go to 8.04? | 05:16 |
| doorknob60 | i upgraded my debian from etch to lenny succesfully using the same mehtod today | 05:16 |
| codster | let me right that down | 05:16 |
| doorknob60 | yeah thats striiahgt to 8.04 :) | 05:16 |
| codster | Could they make Linux as easy as windows, and if they did. Would it contain Virus's like windows? Because somethings i could see being as an improvement for me (noob) user lol | 05:18 |
| codster | i just wanted to know althou i am a little offtopic :( | 05:18 |
| flaccid | they are working towards it, but a lot the problems are with vendors | 05:18 |
| doorknob60 | yeah | 05:19 |
| doorknob60 | clean install of windows is harder than clean (k)ubuntu install | 05:19 |
| codster | yeah, i totally understand things like that, its just when i come to Kubuntu its a little harder, But yet its easier to deal with. | 05:19 |
| codster | yeah thats for sure | 05:19 |
| doorknob60 | but ubuntu seems harder because you gotta set it up yourself when windows typically is preinstalled and working | 05:19 |
| flaccid | you said it! | 05:19 |
| codster | yeah thats what i mean | 05:19 |
| flaccid | doorknob60: not when you have to install drivers after | 05:19 |
| codster | and this editing things? i took one look and in my head "ahhh" lol, i dont wanna mess around with things. | 05:20 |
| flaccid | you gotta install office, ant-virus and all that | 05:20 |
| doorknob60 | well when you buy a new computer with windows it includes the needed drivers | 05:20 |
| codster | yeah which bog's down your system and it goes downhill from that | 05:20 |
| doorknob60 | yeah i know | 05:20 |
| flaccid | who needs to buy a new computer ? | 05:20 |
| codster | :D | 05:20 |
| flaccid | you don't have to edit things much at all in hardy+ | 05:20 |
| doorknob60 | i always build them | 05:20 |
| codster | well im going to install 8.04 thanks for the help | 05:20 |
| codster | okay thanks | 05:20 |
| codster | bye | 05:21 |
| flaccid | ciao | 05:21 |
| doorknob60 | alot cheaper than buying your own comp | 05:21 |
| comodo | i have checked all of my errors on google but no results | 05:21 |
| flaccid | windows + msoffice + av = a lot of money | 05:21 |
| doorknob60 | i got a decent cpu and mobo for under $150 | 05:21 |
| comodo | i can't figure tis out | 05:21 |
| [zEr0-x] | is a very very small pic, don't u have a big one ? | 05:21 |
| flaccid | comodo: how did you go doing the fix? | 05:22 |
| comodo | i just googled the errors | 05:22 |
| comodo | i cannot find anything on them | 05:22 |
| flaccid | [13:46] <genii> The fix for deluge-torrent suggested at http://forum.deluge-torrent.org/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=4875 is: sudo apt-get install dbus-x11 | 05:22 |
| comodo | nice i'll try that thanks | 05:23 |
| flaccid | coolio | 05:23 |
| doorknob60 | who here has an ati card? how well does it work? | 05:23 |
| flaccid | its alright, im on one atm | 05:23 |
| codster | when i typed thoes commands in it did not do anything in upgrading | 05:24 |
| doorknob60 | my new mobo apperantly doesnt support nvidia 8 series cards for some reason so i might have to buy ati | 05:24 |
| flaccid | 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV350 [Mobility Radeon 9600 M10] | 05:24 |
| comodo | wow now it opens thanks flaccid i appricate it | 05:24 |
| flaccid | np comodo | 05:24 |
| codster | It just showed a list of text of websites and it didnt do anything | 05:24 |
| flaccid | doorknob60: nvidia 9600gt is better choice | 05:24 |
| doorknob60 | it might have problems with 9 sersies too though, not sure yet | 05:24 |
| flaccid | codster: pastebin both your /etc/apt/sources.list and output of sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 05:25 |
| doorknob60 | 3 out of 3 newegg reviews say 8 series doesnt work, i bought mobo before any of those reviews | 05:25 |
| doorknob60 | noone of them say anything about 9 series | 05:25 |
| codster | shoot | 05:25 |
| codster | one second | 05:25 |
| flaccid | doorknob60: weird | 05:25 |
| doorknob60 | it has integrated ati :P | 05:25 |
| doorknob60 | probly related to that | 05:25 |
| flaccid | still latest nvidia drivers have issues that slow em down by heaps atm | 05:25 |
| flaccid | the restricted one | 05:26 |
| doorknob60 | im using latest nvidia drivers on my nvidia 5200 no probolems | 05:26 |
| flaccid | yeah, but depending on what version you may not be getting full fps | 05:26 |
| doorknob60 | glxgears shows the same as ive gotten since 7.04 | 05:26 |
| flaccid | thats good | 05:26 |
| doorknob60 | i know glxgears isnt benchmark but idc | 05:27 |
| doorknob60 | no problems here, im on debian lenny though | 05:27 |
| flaccid | i can't remember what exactly it affects. kde4 devs found it by accident in testing | 05:27 |
| doorknob60 | hmm, maybe its a kde4 bug or something? | 05:27 |
| flaccid | nah they worked it out to be the driver, but can't remember what exactly | 05:27 |
| doorknob60 | ah ok | 05:28 |
| doorknob60 | doesnt affect me so thats fine :) | 05:28 |
| flaccid | yeah | 05:28 |
| doorknob60 | so do you have any weird problems with the ati driver? | 05:28 |
| flaccid | i think it affects me. aint getting the high fps i should | 05:28 |
| snake | has anyone resolved the dolphin problem with html files ? | 05:28 |
| flaccid | ati is a pita, but its ok. its always the complaints about setting up dual display etc | 05:28 |
| doorknob60 | i like dual monitors....hmm... | 05:29 |
| codster | flaccid, its right here : http://paste.ubuntu.com/20768/ | 05:29 |
| doorknob60 | does tv out work? | 05:29 |
| flaccid | um i havnt really tried but i couldn't get the s-video to go in the past on restricted.. | 05:29 |
| doorknob60 | meh | 05:30 |
| doorknob60 | thats what i need, svideo out and dual screens | 05:30 |
| doorknob60 | works perfect on geforce 5200 | 05:30 |
| flaccid | restricted drivers need to support the other ports in randr.. | 05:30 |
| === asd214213123 is now known as logico | ||
| flaccid | using nvidia driver? | 05:30 |
| === logico is now known as logico__h | ||
| doorknob60 | yeah, installed manually off nvidia site a few days ago | 05:30 |
| doorknob60 | debian doesnt need no bloated restricted manager :P | 05:31 |
| flaccid | codster: doesn't look like you did the text replace of 'feisty' to 'hardy' in sources.list | 05:31 |
| codster | ohh shoot | 05:31 |
| codster | lol | 05:31 |
| codster | okay one second lol | 05:31 |
| codster | my mistake | 05:31 |
| flaccid | doorknob60: how you set up the dual, the nvidia config binaries? | 05:31 |
| doorknob60 | yeah, kdesu nvidia-settings | 05:32 |
| codster | what was the command? i think i might of added an extra space | 05:32 |
| doorknob60 | kdesudo kate /etc/apt/sources.list | 05:32 |
| codster | okay thanks' | 05:32 |
| codster | there was an "s" | 05:32 |
| flaccid | cool | 05:32 |
| doorknob60 | ah ok | 05:32 |
| codster | Could not run the specified command | 05:32 |
| doorknob60 | ? | 05:33 |
| flaccid | maybe feisty only had kdesu which is symlink to kdesudo ? | 05:33 |
| codster | thats what it is giving me | 05:33 |
| flaccid | codster: kdesu kate /etc/apt/sources.list | 05:33 |
| doorknob60 | maybe, kdesu and kdesudo both work for me | 05:33 |
| codster | lol | 05:33 |
| codster | your right :D | 05:33 |
| doorknob60 | in debian theyre different :O | 05:33 |
| flaccid | should of been kdesudo all along | 05:33 |
| codster | okay im in a Text editor (kate) | 05:34 |
| doorknob60 | in debian kdesu needs root password kdesudo needs user password | 05:34 |
| codster | Every Fiesty Word i replace with Hardy? | 05:34 |
| flaccid | codster: do the replace, exit and save | 05:34 |
| doorknob60 | yeah | 05:34 |
| doorknob60 | no capital | 05:34 |
| codster | okay | 05:34 |
| codster | lol thats alot! | 05:34 |
| flaccid | doorknob60: has it been like that all along? | 05:34 |
| doorknob60 | flaccid: i think so, debian by defaut uses root instead of sudo, so kdesu is for su (root), kdesudo is for sudo (like in ubuntu) | 05:35 |
| flaccid | doorknob60: i'll give the dual a shot on this 9600 soon, but i need hdmi heh | 05:35 |
| doorknob60 | im not worried about dual or tv out on 9600 | 05:35 |
| flaccid | yeah i use debian, but only as server | 05:35 |
| flaccid | yes but lots of people would be ? we have to use beta drivers atm | 05:35 |
| doorknob60 | im worried if it would support my mobo because the ati integrated card seems to "block" 8 series cards from working | 05:36 |
| doorknob60 | i heard 7800's work fine | 05:36 |
| flaccid | hmmm one can only try | 05:36 |
| flaccid | yeah they are good | 05:36 |
| codster | Now its done | 05:36 |
| codster | how do i save? | 05:36 |
| codster | just save? | 05:36 |
| doorknob60 | yeah | 05:36 |
| flaccid | just close and say yes | 05:36 |
| codster | okay | 05:36 |
| codster | that was alot of hardy words lol | 05:36 |
| codster | now i will do the commands | 05:36 |
| codster | there we go | 05:37 |
| codster | getting hardy updates :D | 05:37 |
| doorknob60 | good | 05:37 |
| codster | thanks man | 05:37 |
| codster | this is awesome and easy lol | 05:37 |
| flaccid | codster: cool, just run a sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade after to make sure you got it all. it could take some time however.. | 05:38 |
| doorknob60 | yeah | 05:38 |
| codster | yeah i know :( its 12;38pm and their is a exam tommarrow lol | 05:38 |
| doorknob60 | dist-upgrade does everything upgrade does and more, no need for both | 05:38 |
| codster | shoot | 05:38 |
| codster | how can i stop it now? | 05:38 |
| doorknob60 | why? | 05:38 |
| codster | its done anyways | 05:38 |
| flaccid | i thought dist-upgrade did kernel. it does both kernel and userland? i thought you could upgrade kernel but leave userlan | 05:39 |
| codster | okay i only ran "Update" | 05:39 |
| flaccid | must be wrong | 05:39 |
| doorknob60 | dist-upgrade does everything | 05:39 |
| flaccid | oky doky | 05:39 |
| codster | okay | 05:39 |
| codster | thanks | 05:39 |
| doorknob60 | i confirmed that eralier today by upgrading etch to lenny | 05:39 |
| flaccid | doorknob60: so if you do only upgrade, the kernel will be left with dist-upgrade right? | 05:39 |
| codster | wow | 05:39 |
| doorknob60 | yeah | 05:39 |
| codster | 768 Upgraded | 05:39 |
| flaccid | cool | 05:39 |
| codster | 181newly installed | 05:39 |
| codster | lol this might take awhile | 05:40 |
| doorknob60 | always ideal to do dist-upgrade to ovid dependency problems | 05:40 |

| flaccid | ok thanks doorknob60 | 05:40 |
| codster | thank you soo much, if i do go to sleep can i leave this running? | 05:40 |
| doorknob60 | yeah, but after it downloads it likes to ask a ton of questions :P | 05:40 |

| codster | okay | 05:40 |

| === snake is now known as albuntu | ||
| Jucato | what problem? | 06:08 |
| albuntu | Jucato i cant even point the mouse to html or xml files because i get this error | 06:09 |
| albuntu | http://paste.ubuntu.com/20774/ | 06:11 |
| Jucato | hm.. that seems to be a common error lately... | 06:11 |
| * Jucato investigates | 06:11 | |
| flaccid | yeah thats a bug, people have fixed it by removing the text/html mimetype from the file | 06:12 |
| Jucato | listen to flaccid :) | 06:12 |
| albuntu | flaccid thanks. i saw that before | 06:12 |
| albuntu | but i thought some | 06:12 |
| albuntu | permanent solution was out | 06:13 |
| flaccid | im not sure if someone even submitted a bug, i don't use ipod so i didn't submit the but. but to me podcasts are xml so text/html is invalid. but im not sure the purpose of the desktop file | 06:13 |
| albuntu | anyways dolphin is a file manager so | 06:15 |
| albuntu | no file would do that indipendently by the type | 06:15 |
| Jucato | I think the problem is that D3lphin (Dolphin KDE 3 hack) tries to load file-specific service menus in the Information sidebar, which causes the error | 06:17 |
| Jucato | (of course Dolphin (KDE 4) doesn't do that...) | 06:17 |
| albuntu | yes maybe you are right | 06:18 |
| albuntu | but it seems strange to me that no permanent solution was found | 06:18 |
| flaccid | maybe because nobody followed it up | 06:19 |
| Jucato | the service menu is properly konqueror's, which doesn't load/detect the service menu unless a right-click has been made. unlike D3lphin | 06:19 |
| * Jucato thinks a permanent solution would be to remove D3lphin... :D | 06:19 | |
| doorknob60 | konqueror > d3lphin | 06:20 |
| Jucato | * > d3lphin :D | 06:20 |
| Jucato | er.. everything except Explorer... | 06:21 |
| doorknob60 | pretty muc :P | 06:21 |
| doorknob60 | yeah......maybe | 06:21 |

| ubottu | Launchpad bug 199393 in dolphin "servicemenu for amarok has an invalid menu entry "addAsPodcast"" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 06:21 |
| Jucato | the funny thing about that bug is that the service menu for d3lphin is installed by the d3lphin packages.. whereas the one for konqueror is installed by amarok... | 06:22 |

| sjck | Hey, how can I use mouse buttons 4&5 as shortcut? | 09:32 |
| dwidmann | sjck: you might be able to work something like that out with xbindkeys ... | 09:33 |
| sjck | sorry, what you mean? I try to use settings->configure shortcuts but it seems that it dont know that buttons | 09:34 |
| dwidmann | Yeah, I know, you can't use them there ... but if you think it would be useful,k you could tie one of those button presses to a command (ie: anything you would use in a shell .... including dcop commands) | 09:35 |
| sjck | that sounds quiet complicated, anyways you know how to bind in konqueror back and forward? | 09:36 |
| dwidmann | I'm not sure, there might be another, easier way to do it ..... but I personally don't know it ... I'll google it and see if I can come up with anything | 09:36 |
| sjck | thank you :) I'm googling aswell | 09:37 |
| JackWinter | so no known issues with kded in 8.04 except for USB devices causing it to race ? | 09:38 |
| dwidmann | sjck: you can tie the mouse button to a button combo with xbindkeys I think .... like, you could make button4 = ctrl+alt+shift+x if you wanted to (anything you want) .... slightly complicated though it may be, it *should* work | 09:39 |
| sjck | there should be a wiki article about extra mouse buttons | 09:40 |
| sjck | but I cant find | 09:40 |
| dwidmann | wait, I think I've found something interesting here that might do the trick | 09:43 |

| JackWinter | just as a matter of interest, how can an app take 240% cpu according to top ? | 09:58 |
| dwidmann | JackWinter: multiple cores? | 09:59 |
| JackWinter | dwidmann: yes q6600 | 09:59 |
| dwidmann | so, 240% out of 400% possible | 09:59 |
| JackWinter | dwidmann: aha, thanks didn't know that. | 10:00 |
| JackWinter | so kded taking 90% is no biggie, especially if it yields gracefully to other apps. I think I managed to eliminate the app giving me problems with audio. must have been skype being less than civalized with its resources... | 10:01 |
| dwidmann | hmm, my kded is using <1% cpu | 10:02 |
| JackWinter | now under load kded cpu usage has shrunk to 30% according to top | 10:03 |
| dwidmann | still abnormally high IMO | 10:03 |
| JackWinter | i can't remember ever seing it use that much either. don't really want to kill all my apps though ;) | 10:04 |

| ActionParsnip | support maybe | 13:25 |
| ActionParsnip | no idea | 13:25 |
| flaccid | is the notebook the exact same model? | 13:26 |

| ActionParsnip | the-erm: is it the same model..EXACTLY? | 13:27 |
| * ActionParsnip repeats for flaccid | 13:27 | |
| the-erm | Well it's 1525N for the ubuntu laptop, and 1525 for the windows. | 13:27 |
| the-erm | but the windows laptop has more memory & afew other things. | 13:28 |
| ActionParsnip | so whats the difference in spec? | 13:28 |
| nyuu__ | hi | 13:28 |
| ActionParsnip | thats why then | 13:28 |
| ActionParsnip | nothing to do with OS | 13:28 |
| ActionParsnip | more hardware == more cash | 13:28 |
| Dr_Willis | Dell has gotten a bad press for that befor.. BUT from what i read.. dell i actually several different 'departments' and the linux dept. will oftenhave different deals then the other dept. that may have different deals then the business dept. and so forth | 13:28 |

| nyuu__ | but it plays slowly | 13:28 |
| ActionParsnip | nyuu__: got latest codecs? | 13:28 |
| the-erm | NO the point is the 1525 has more hardware, but costs less that 1525N. | 13:28 |
| Dr_Willis | I recall some large blogs/discussion on that topic the-erm by some ex-dell employees | 13:28 |
| nyuu__ | yea | 13:29 |
| nyuu__ | the problem is... | 13:29 |
| ActionParsnip | the-erm: i see | 13:29 |
| flaccid | can i have links to both? | 13:29 |

| kkathman | morning (or good day) folks :) | 15:15 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | cds are read only, and should be mounted read only, i fail to see the problem | 15:16 |
| lxuser | so after i mountedt it read only it says wrong fs type | 15:16 |
| lxuser | so i added mount -t iso9660 to it | 15:16 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | no, you read the error wrong | 15:17 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | it says block device /dev/scd0 is write protected, mounting read only | 15:17 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | "mounting" - it already did it | 15:17 |
| lxuser | yh | 15:17 |
| lxuser | but | 15:17 |
| noaXess | Daisuke_Laptop: qt4-config is the solution | 15:17 |
| lxuser | after this it says wrong fs type | 15:17 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | and why aren't cds automounting in the first place, i'd be more concerned with that | 15:17 |
| rajkalyan | noaXess, that doesn't work if adept is running does it? | 15:18 |
| lxuser | my problem is after its mounted it says "wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/scd0..." | 15:19 |

| Asad_ | hello | 16:11 |
| Asad_ | can any one tell me about disk partition thypes in kbuntu | 16:11 |
| marcus__ | The default is usually EXT32, I believe... | 16:12 |
| marcus__ | But kubuntu recognises most partition types and can mount them automatically. | 16:12 |
| ixenakis | bye | 16:24 |
| marcus__ | Byes. | 16:24 |
| bobJR | does anyone know why the gui gproftpd for my ftp server will not even load | 16:32 |
| marcus__ | We don't, because we don't know the file structure/settings etc. for your FTP server. | 16:33 |
| bobJR | i just put the ftp server on from adept manager | 16:34 |
| bobJR | im totally new at this | 16:34 |

| engineer | proftpd is quite easy to config | 16:35 |

| window | anyone? | 17:58 |
| Marphine | Here I am to solicit technical help. What a shock! | 17:58 |
| genii | Yes. With sudo | 17:58 |
| vczcdfad | hello, how come when i modprobe -r ndiswrapper, modprobe -l | grep ndiswrap get lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/ubuntu/misc/ndiswrapper/ndiswrapper.ko still??? | 17:58 |
| santiago-ve | Marphine: well | 17:59 |
| genii | window: sudo apt-get install firefox-3.0 | 17:59 |
| Marphine | I am trying to get Dapper Drake Kubuntu to recognise my Netgear 802.11G WG311 PCI card. | 17:59 |
| santiago-ve | Marphine: i suggest you to change to hardy Heron... | 17:59 |
| santiago-ve | it is LTS too | 17:59 |
| santiago-ve | anywhat | 17:59 |
| santiago-ve | lemme google | 17:59 |
| Marphine | Said card is my only net access so I can only get online with my windows partition so I cannot use the adept installer to do anything | 18:00 |
| Marphine | Hardy requires more RAM than I have | 18:00 |
| Marphine | and I can't see putting money into this P3-966 to get it up to spec | 18:01 |
| santiago-ve | Marphine: how much ram do you have?= | 18:01 |
| Marphine | 256 | 18:01 |
| rickest | Marphine: you might be better off installing ubuntu server and selecting a minimal window manager; i.e., icewm, xfce, etc. | 18:01 |
| Marphine | Hardy needs something close to 300... I can't remember the exact number | 18:01 |
| santiago-ve | Marphine: that's for graphical install | 18:02 |
| santiago-ve | you can use an alternate install | 18:02 |
| santiago-ve | which requires lot less of memory | 18:02 |
| santiago-ve | and runs in text mode | 18:02 |
| Marphine | yes but I'm not familiar enough with the process to trty the command line install | 18:02 |
| santiago-ve | Marphine: its really easy | 18:03 |
| santiago-ve | :p | 18:03 |
| Marphine | but the only issue I'm having now that's a problem is this wireless card. Unless that will resolve the driver issue it's not where I''m trying to go with this system at the moment | 18:03 |
| santiago-ve | ye, i undestand | 18:03 |
| dwidmann | me on a typical day .... 850MiB :O | 18:04 |
| Marphine | also I have no net access on Linux without getting this card going so I couldn't update after installing | 18:04 |
| Marphine | in fact I'm not using linux at all currently because everything I do on this machine involves the 'Net | 18:05 |
| Marphine | It looks like I need to install either Madwifi or ath5k | 18:05 |
| santiago-ve | Marphine: do a lspci (on a console) | 18:05 |
| santiago-ve | and use pastebin to pass the result | 18:05 |
| Marphine | okay what will that do? | 18:05 |
| jagguli | hi all ... im havin a problem ... alsa seems to have broken after upgrade ... any suggestions how to fix this ... | 18:06 |
| santiago-ve | give the info about the hardware you have | 18:06 |
| Marphine | I'm not able to do that without rebooting the computer | 18:06 |
| santiago-ve | :S | 18:06 |
| santiago-ve | well Marphine check these links out then: http://madwifi.org/wiki/Compatibility/Netgear | 18:06 |
| Marphine | anyway I know what piece of hardware is not working... I have the box for it sitting on my desk right now | 18:06 |
| santiago-ve | http://ge.ubuntuforums.com/showthread.php?t=732298&page=5 | 18:07 |
| santiago-ve | http://linux-wless.passys.nl/query_part.php?brandname=Netgear | 18:07 |
| Marphine | It is compatable with my chipset if I can install one of the beforementioned packages - Madwifi or (preferably) ath5k | 18:07 |
| Marphine | they work with the Atheros chipset the card has | 18:08 |
| santiago-ve | Marphine: give it a try :D | 18:08 |
| Marphine | but I am not familiar with installing software without the adapt manager that comes with the OS and in this case I need to download some archive and install from that rather then from repository | 18:09 |
| Marphine | hmmm okay it says that there are a couple on revisions so I'll have to doublecheck for compatability | 18:11 |
| santiago-ve | Marphine: you can ask here for assistance | 18:12 |
| santiago-ve | we're here for taht :) | 18:12 |
| jaggulli | oh ... the problem fixed itseld | 18:13 |
| Marphine | yeah I'm trying to verify the version of the card - apparently there is one that will not work with the madwifi driver and I need to make sure that's not the one I have before proceeding | 18:13 |
| minhaaj | firefox 3 is otu ? | 18:13 |
| minhaaj | i can't open up the website | 18:13 |
| minhaaj | sounds like load | 18:13 |
| Marphine | looking for my tiny mirror so I don't have to pull tghe card | 18:13 |
| Marphine | okay it's a revision 1 so I can proceed with not knowing how to proceed | 18:15 |
| llutz | Moin | 18:16 |
| Marphine | but ... uh ... I sort of still need some help | 18:16 |
| santiago-ve | Marphine: ill be arround | 18:17 |
| Marphine | I'm looking at those links you sent - there's a lot of info I need to look over now | 18:18 |

| frybye | is there a way to easily replace the firefox3 rc3 that i have at the moment with the f-fox3-final that has been released today??? | 18:49 |
| frybye | there is no menupoint "Update." | 18:49 |
| minhaaj | uninstall it | 18:50 |
| alextvm_ | hello is there a way to pause "sudo apt-get install" so in case i have to stop the process it doesnt have to start all over again? | 18:50 |
| _CrashMaster_ | alextvm_: Im pretty sure its an all or nothing command | 18:50 |
| frybye | - my ? put differently - when is the f-fox3-final likely to show up in the repositories...? | 18:51 |
| alextvm_ | ok thanks | 18:52 |
| frybye | - or - who has replaced an earlier f-fox3rc with the new f-fox3-final and how did you go about it?? | 18:53 |
| Jason2gs | I have Ubuntu has the only operating system on my laptop. I'm currently building a desktop computer, but I'm not sure if I should install Ubuntu, or because I kinda like the KDE look, Kubuntu. If I install Kubuntu, will I have any compatibility issues? I wouldn't think so, but I think it'd be best to check... | 18:54 |
| frybye | you can check your hardware against the compatibility list - eh - i think what works for ubuntu works for kubuntu or..? | 18:56 |
| _CrashMaster_ | Jason2gs: As I understand it, Kubuntu and Ubuntu only differ in that Kubuntu used KDE and Unbuntu uses Gnome. And you can easily switch back and forth between the two. | 18:56 |
| window | ok how do i ad the Firefox to my repository? or how can i do it via Konsole? | 18:56 |
| frybye | the firefox in the repositories is still the rc3 as far as I am aware...??? | 18:57 |
| window | darn | 18:57 |
| frybye | window: my feelings exactly.. | 18:57 |
| frybye | there are alternative ways to install - but I don't know enough to say how or if it would replace the existing one if you have it.. | 18:58 |
| frybye | generally if one just installs something -by hand- it tends to run parallel to other versions - depending perhaps on where you put it - but I am too much of a newbie to say much about this...l | 18:58 |
| _CrashMaster_ | frybye: window: www.Firefox.com You can download the latest and the install instructions provided are pretty straight forward. | 18:58 |
| TimS | RC3 is the same as 3 final, so don't worry about updating if you have RC3 | 18:58 |
| frybye | _CrashMaster_: but that will install it alongside the existing rc3 or..? | 18:59 |
| TimS | frybye: Do you have RC3 atm? | 18:59 |
| frybye | TimS: is that a fact.. | 18:59 |
| TimS | Yes | 18:59 |
| frybye | yes... i hvae rc3... | 18:59 |
| _CrashMaster_ | frybye: When I did it, it replaced RC3 | 18:59 |
| _CrashMaster_ | But as TimS said, they are the same thing, when you boil it down. | 19:00 |
| frybye | as far as i k - the rc3 only had a change on rc2 relating to a mac os problem.. but I was not aware that the rc3 was the same as final...? | 19:00 |
| TimS | frybye: If you want to help the world record, download it off their servers. | 19:00 |
| TimS | http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/3.0/linux-i686/en-US/ | 19:00 |
| TimS | According to the guys in the mozilla irc(irc.mozilla.org) its the same | 19:01 |
| frybye | I hve to be a bit carefull cos I am on an amd64 system and want the flash etc to still work afterwards.. being a newbie I woiuld have trouble setting it up by hand.. | 19:01 |
| TimS | Oh I see | 19:01 |
| frybye | TimS: ok i had better stick with what I have for just now... | 19:01 |
| TimS | That was the 32 bit link | 19:01 |
| TimS | frybye: Yeah, it will be in the reppos before too long, although updates in the reppos wont count towards the record | 19:02 |
| frybye | right and i am in germany anyhows.. the us english might not be right I guess.. | 19:02 |
| frybye | i am going to hang on I guess.. would like to help with the record but... | 19:02 |
| frybye | dont want a screwed system... no flash etc... | 19:03 |
| TimS | No, i was just guessing :P | 19:03 |
| TimS | frybye: Do what I did, download it then just delete it :P | 19:03 |
| frybye | TimS: sneaky thing you hehehehe | 19:03 |
| |Toad | how do i tell what version i'm using? when i go to about firefox, it just says 3.0, but i know it's rc something | 19:03 |
| frybye | |Toad: same here... | 19:04 |
| frybye | if you go to the "version info" page it is all about rc3 - or was yesterday.. not not accessable... | 19:04 |
| frybye | e e e now not accessable... | 19:04 |
| _CrashMaster_ | from a terminal, type "firefox -v" to get your exact version | 19:05 |
| === Gohan is now known as testsym | ||

| |Toad | adept says that i have rc1 installed.... | 19:06 |
| |Toad | but it never gve me an option to get anyhting higher | 19:06 |
| TimS | |Toad: how can you tell in adept? | 19:06 |
| |Toad | it says rc1 in the description | 19:06 |
| frybye | I got rc1 via adept in kde3 a bit back - but in kde4 if I am not mistaken it got me the rc3 a day or two ago... | 19:06 |
| TimS | Odd, not for me | 19:07 |
| frybye | ah - what the heck - apart from the d-load record - the rc3 is pretty good - stable - fast as lightning etc... | 19:07 |
| _CrashMaster_ | frybye: try #firefox maybe they can get you some better information. | 19:07 |

| ActionParsnip | engineer: give it a go, ive not tested it but it makes sense. put it in a folder so it doesnt remove any other files | 20:19 |
| ActionParsnip | engineer: rm *.exe is quite agressive but in its own folder it will be file | 20:20 |
| === roger_do_domu is now known as Tyczek_na_strycz | ||

| engineer | i have to go | 20:24 |
| minhaaj | wget isnt working | 20:24 |
| minhaaj | :s | 20:24 |
| Rioting_pacifist | well id go though repos because rc3 is ff3 but if your going to install the tar move the files to /opt/firefox then "ln -s /opt/firefox/firefox /usr/bin/firefox" then "rm -r /opt/firefox/plugins" then "ln -s /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/ /opt/firefox/plugins/" | 20:25 |
| ActionParsnip | Haza1: for desktop? | 20:25 |
| mrksbrd | Rioting_pacifist:what is your way to install ff3?....I would like to do it the easiest way possible | 20:25 |
| ActionParsnip | Haza1: like recording your desktop | 20:25 |
| Haza1 | ActionParsnip: indeed matey | 20:25 |
| rav | Rioting_pacifist: i installed gnome-support, and nothing | 20:25 |
| ActionParsnip | Haza1: sudo apt-get install recordmydesktop | 20:26 |
| Rioting_pacifist | rav try removing libbonoboui2-0 | 20:26 |
| ActionParsnip | Haza1: ;) | 20:26 |
| Haza1 | ActionParsnip: That easy eh~/ | 20:26 |
| Rioting_pacifist | mrksbrd: well id go though repos because rc3 is ff3 but if your going to install the tar move the files to /opt/firefox then "ln -s /opt/firefox/firefox /usr/bin/firefox" then "rm -r /opt/firefox/plugins" then "ln -s /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/ /opt/firefox/plugins/" | 20:26 |
| ActionParsnip | Haza1: always the case in linux my friend | 20:26 |
| Haza1 | ActionParsnip: Hahahah, im starting to learn that as each day passes :) | 20:27 |
| ActionParsnip | Haza1: why make it complicated | 20:27 |
| mrksbrd | what is the repoo command? sudo apt-get install ff3rc3? | 20:27 |
| Rioting_pacifist | sudo apt-get install firefox | 20:27 |
| ActionParsnip | mrksbrd: try tab completing ;) | 20:27 |
| user1_ | i cant start kde and x. how to reconfigure or reinstall all that kde or x? | 20:28 |
| Rioting_pacifist | firefox will install ffrc3 which will be renamed in a few days, unless minhaaj. actually has a clue and mozilla have redefined release cycles for firefox3, but i find both of those unlikely | 20:28 |
| minhaaj | dont pay attention to Rioting_pacifist | 20:28 |
| minhaaj | he is some weird IE8 freak | 20:28 |
| minhaaj | get ff3. its in adept manager now | 20:29 |
| user1_ | i cant start kde and x. how to reconfigure or reinstall all that kde or x? | 20:29 |
| Haza1 | ActionParsnip: I have another question | 20:29 |
| Haza1 | If you have the time | 20:29 |
| ActionParsnip | Haza1: sup | 20:29 |
| ActionParsnip | Haza1: always ask, someone will answer | 20:29 |
| rav | Rioting_pacifist: that worked, removing libbonoboui2-0 and all libs connected to it fixed it. Thanks! | 20:29 |
| Haza1 | So, i noticed that some programs i apt-get do not appear in the ...well.... start menu | 20:30 |
| mrksbrd | i feel like an idiot now....i've tried everything but simple command of "get install firefox" .........<<<<<<<<<<<<<is a jackass | 20:30 |
| Rioting_pacifist | if you have a launchpad acount could you confirm my bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kubuntu-meta/+bug/240472 i dont think anybody else has noticed | 20:30 |

| Haza1 | ActionParsnip: Umm. sorry to sound like a noob (although i am) but... how would i add that "recordmydesktop" app? | 20:32 |
| user1_ | can anyone see me | 20:33 |
| user1_ | ? | 20:33 |
| Rioting_pacifist | Haza1: there used to be a program called debian-menu that gave all apps, i think it MAY now be called menu-xdg but im not 100% | 20:33 |
| ActionParsnip | Haza1: click on the part of the tree you want. file -> new item | 20:33 |

| Rioting_pacifist | user1_: what happens when you start x? e.g login as command line and type startx | 20:34 |
| ActionParsnip | user1_: sudo apt-get --reinstall kde-desktop (use some tab autocomplete here) | 20:35 |
| rav | user_1: could you ever start kde and X? Mine broke when I misconfigured the nvidia driver | 20:35 |
| ActionParsnip | user1_: Rioting_pacifist is asking good stuff | 20:35 |
| user1_ | Rioting_pacifist: jjust an X . nothign else | 20:35 |
| user1_ | Rioting_pacifist: will that help? | 20:36 |
| Rioting_pacifist | user1_: try sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg | 20:36 |
| user1_ | Rioting_pacifist: how can i copy that line? | 20:36 |
| ActionParsnip | user1_: pen and paper, or use your mind | 20:36 |
| Rioting_pacifist | actually if you boot into recovery mode a menu should give you the option of fixing x | 20:36 |
| Haza1 | ActionParsnip: Okay mate. ive done that. now i have a text box.... am i looking for the .sh file here? | 20:36 |
| mrksbrd | hold down your left mouse button & highlight it | 20:36 |
| Haza1 | And if i am... what is it? or where is it | 20:37 |
| user1_ | k.......... | 20:37 |
| Mr_Cheeto | how do i search for repositories? | 20:37 |
| Rioting_pacifist | user1_: I think the easiest way to fix your problem is to roboot into recovery mode, press esc, get up grub, then youll get a menu and it will offer you fix x, that should fix your system | 20:38 |
| Rioting_pacifist | Mr_Cheeto: use adept_manager or aptitude search <name> | 20:38 |
| Haza1 | ActionParsnip: Sorry mate. im new to the KDE enviroment (not to mention the whole linux experience) :) | 20:38 |

| _2 | i still have something eating ram, and i can't find it. http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/?show=d706d3b1e | 21:15 |
| Rioting_pacifist | _2: try htop or ps -Al | 21:16 |
| _2 | Rioting_pacifist huh ? | 21:16 |
| Rioting_pacifist | ps -Al will give you more info to find it and htop is a nice alternative that gives loads of info | 21:17 |
| _2 | ? | 21:19 |
| _2 | one would have to start a gui to use htop heh. | 21:21 |
| andreina | hello! | 21:22 |
| andreina | andreina205herr@hotmail.com | 21:22 |
| Rioting_pacifist | no htop is CLI but ps -Al will give you the info you need | 21:22 |
| _2 | Rioting_pacifist you can not config htop in a console i just tried it. you can from a gui i tried it too. | 21:23 |
| _2 | at least the fersion i have. hopefully they fixed it in later releases | 21:23 |
| Rioting_pacifist | htop is a command line app, you dont need X to configure it only htop | 21:24 |
| _2 | tell the app don't tell me. | 21:24 |
| _2 | start htop press f2 and cpu goes to 100% and stays there nothing else happens you have to ^C kill it | 21:25 |
| _2 | run it inside of X and it doesn't have that problem. | 21:26 |
| Rioting_pacifist | weird | 21:26 |
| _2 | is repetable tested three times. just to make sure i wasn't missing something. | 21:26 |
| _2 | as i stated ^ i hope they have fixed that by now. | 21:27 |
| _2 | but at any rate you have to start a gui to use htop in dapper unless you want to just look at the default output, in which case you might as well use top | 21:28 |
| _2 | thus my conclusion on that subject, "htop is completely worthless to me" | 21:30 |
| sheleztt | Is "firefox 3 starts offline" problem solved in kde? | 21:36 |
| _2 | ps doesn't report anything using more ram than 0.4m and of the 33 processes you do the math, that should not be 12m (actually far less closer to 6 because i listed the highest as .4 some list .0 and some .1) but i show 16m used so something is amiss | 21:36 |
| _2 | something is eating ram, and i fail to find it. | 21:37 |
| _2 | another box reports Memory Used/Total Percent: 7/123 MB (5%) | 21:39 |
| _2 | Swap Used/Total Percent: 0/0 MB (0%) | 21:39 |
| _2 | which seems right. but this one is choaking out more than twice that much. | 21:39 |
| sheleztt | _2: mm... top doesn't show the most "fat" process? | 21:40 |
| _2 | sheleztt yes 0.4m | 21:40 |
| nightrow | Hi, i'm using kde4.0.5, but i can't get focus on a window by clicking inside . I have to click on the title bar to get focus. Is this a known bug ? | 21:40 |

| _2 | note that the last several processes were the pastebin in progress. http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/?show=d275d5ad7 | 21:42 |
| sheleztt | _2: you've said that you fail to find it.. here it is, i think. | 21:42 |
| _2 | sheleztt i'm all ears. | 21:42 |
| weswh- | how can i look at the various processes running on my system, to see how much RAM things are using up | 21:43 |
| weswh- | i want to know how much firefox is using | 21:43 |
| _2 | top | 21:43 |
| _2 | ps aux | 21:43 |
| _2 | "htop" for those that like it. | 21:43 |
| nightrow | try ksysguard otherwise | 21:43 |
| Rioting_pacifist | weswh-: top, htop or probably ksysguard | 21:43 |
| _2 | alt+esc | 21:44 |
| Rioting_pacifist | ctrl+esc i think | 21:44 |
| _2 | is it ^ ? | 21:44 |
| Rioting_pacifist | but maybe i changed it | 21:44 |
| _2 | i don't use kde so i'll take your word for it. | 21:44 |
| weswh- | is VMSize, the memory footprint? | 21:45 |
| Rioting_pacifist | yeah | 21:46 |
| _2 | top is the most simple to understand of those imo | 21:46 |
| weswh- | yeah top is nice | 21:46 |
| Rioting_pacifist | _2: im not sure if this makes sense but is it possible that 7mb missing in ram is the kernel | 21:47 |
| weswh- | so in top, VIRT says 338m, and RES says 167m | 21:47 |
| weswh- | in ksysguard, it calls that VMSize and VMRSS | 21:47 |
| _2 | Rioting_pacifist sure. except for the fact that an identical system isn't loosing that 7m ;/ | 21:47 |
| _2 | Rioting_pacifist normally the "about 6m" that the kernel eats just doesn't show as part of the total i.e. it is not reported anywhere. | 21:49 |
| Rioting_pacifist | try #linux or #debian i dont think theres much help for tracking down a few missing MB here, normally its just explaining how to use apt-get install | 21:49 |
| _2 | top says this box with 512m ram has (Mem: 515748k total) that's what? 503m so 9m not reported at all ? | 21:51 |
| nightrow | _2 : i think the kernel takes some M of ram for itself at startup which is said not "usable" thus substracted from system memory | 21:53 |
| _2 | nightrow yeah that's what i said. just different words. | 21:55 |
| nightrow | sorry - only read your last sentence ... :( | 21:56 |
| === StasV is now known as LegolasV | ||
| _2 | the kernel of about 1.5m and the uncompressed initramfs of anywhere form 1 to 8 meg is just simply "lost" as far as all memory reporting methoods are concerned. it's kind of like the kernel "can't see itself?" so to speak. | 21:58 |

| _2 | coreymon77 kdesu amarok ? i know that doesn't sound like the best idea tho. | 22:09 |
| bestpvp | want to make it linux file system aslo | 22:09 |
| coreymon77 | _2: tried that | 22:10 |
| coreymon77 | time to give gtkpod a try | 22:10 |
| _2 | bestpvp you use mke2fs or any of the wrapper scripts like mkfs.ext3 on the device example: sudo mke2fs -jc /dev/sda2 && sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt && echo "look in /mnt now" || echo "something failed" | 22:12 |
| jals | hey for installing Wine 1.0 can i follow the ubuntu instructions on the wine page or will it be different for kde? | 22:12 |
| _2 | bestpvp that example should make an ext3 fs on device sda2 and mount it on /mnt or if not report that there was an error. | 22:13 |
| jals | little new to this | 22:13 |

| melkart | Rioting_pacifist: if 8.10 doesnt work out for me, then i have a problem | 22:15 |
| Rioting_pacifist | what was your particular problem wireless, gfk ? | 22:16 |
| Rioting_pacifist | there were some kernel updates released but i think it was mainly for security and a couple updates were realesed that fixed issues with proprietory ATI (but then again OSS ATI is usable) | 22:17 |
| _2 | bestpvp look closely at the output of fdisk -l or cat /proc/partitions the nominclature is pretty simple /dev < device dirrectory. /dev/sd < scsi device (includes usb and some sata) and /dev/hd < the ide bus, normally internal hard drives /dev/sda < the letter (a) starting with a and lettering upward is the drive letter{hda or sda is the first hdd}. /dev/sda1 < the number (1) starting with one and counting upward | 22:20 |

| nordmoen | How come Kubuntu is so much better to save battery than Ubuntu? On my laptop I got 2 hours more out of it =D | 23:09 |
| Rioting_pacifist | because it rocks, erm im not sure you could try running powertop 2hrs difference sounds like something is wrong with gnome (other than the obvious) | 23:10 |
| nordmoen | hehe :P | 23:10 |
| nordmoen | well from what I can tell, Kubuntu uses about 16~17w/h compared to 20~24 w/h in Ubuntu (with nothing runing, Kubuntu spikes to about 18w/h when the CPU is at 100%) | 23:12 |

| Rioting_pacifist | nordmoen: that cant be right at 100% both will use the same, but any savings in kubuntu would be due to less wake ups, a likely option is you have compiz running in ubuntu but not kubuntu | 23:16 |
